Toronto Raptors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (shoulder) won't suit up for Saturday's game against Minnesota. He hasn't played yet this season because of an AC joint sprain. However, he's moving in the right direction, so fantasy managers could see him on the floor in the next few games. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) also out, Scottie Barnes, Gradey Dick, and Jakob Poeltl should lead the way offensively.

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) will be sidelined for both Friday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers and Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to a right pelvic contusion. With Quickley unable to play, Davion Mitchell is expected to step into the starting role for Friday's game. Mitchell logged 25 minutes off the bench in the season opener on Wednesday and will likely see increased responsibility as a starter. Quickley's next opportunity to return to action could be on Monday when the Raptors face the Denver Nuggets.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (shoulder) won't play in Friday's meeting with Philadelphia. This will mark his second consecutive absence due to the AC joint injury sustained during the preseason. Luckily, he's been practicing of late, so it appears he's inching his way closer to a return. With Immanuel Quickley (Pelvis) also out, Scottie Barnes and Gradey Dick should lead the way offensively. At the same time, Ochai Agbaji and Davion Mitchell warrant streaming attention in deeper formats.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (shoulder) is doubtful heading into Friday's matchup with Philly. The 24-year-old suffered an AC joint sprain during the preseason and has been working his way back since. He wasn't available for Wednesday's loss to the Cavaliers. However, Barrett practiced on Thursday, so it appears there's a shot he'll be on the floor on Saturday versus Minnesota. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) also not expected to suit up, Scottie Barnes and Gradey Dick are must-starts for any fantasy format. There is also streaming potential for Ochai Agbaji, Davion Mitchell, and Chris Boucher.

Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (shoulder) was able to participate in practice on Thursday. Barrett suffered an AC joint strain during the preseason and has been sidelined since October 6th. The initial plan was to target a return during the season opener but he was held out of action in Wednesday's opener against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Barrett's participation on Thursday is certainly a positive sign, though the 24-year-old is still listed as doubtful for Friday night's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Toronto plays in a back-to--back starting with Friday's game, so a more likely return date for Barrett may be Monday night against the Denver Nuggets. In his absence, along with the absence of fellow forward Kelly Olynyk, the Raptors deployed a three guard lineup that saw Gradey Dick be the beneficiary of additional volume. Dick put up 16 points and two blocks on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should consider targeting the 20-year-old as a viable fill-in option while both Barrett and Olynyk are out.
